“…In order to confirm the data on metal content obtained by atomic absorption spectrometry of the lichen material dealt with in this study, the residue usually remaining after wet ashing (Garty et al, 1977) was examined for mineral content by X-ray diffraction analysis.…”

“…var. aurantia was collected from concrete roofing tiles as described by Garty et al (1977), from two sites. One, an industrial and commercial district of the city of Tel-Aviv: Nahlat-Yizhaq (Site 1) and the second, a small village, Ganne am (Site 2).…”

“…Lichens in particular have been widely used as trace element atmospheric biomonitors as they are widespread and capable of absorbing elements directly from the atmosphere and accumulating them in their tissues. As a result of these proporties of lichens, several papers have been published on heavy metal monitoring of lichens in different geographic areas, even Antarctic regions (Garty et al, 1977;Ölmez et al, 1985;Bargagli, 1989;Bermudez et al, 2009;Villarini et al, 2009). Lichen biomonitoring is often used as receptor based method in air quality studies.…”

“…No entanto, estas amostras apresentaram comportamento similar às demais. Este comportamento resultou da reação dos liquens com componentes usualmente presentes em atmosferas contaminadas provenientes de áreas urbanas, suburbanas e rurais 22 . No caso das áreas rurais, a presença desses elementos está associada às queimadas realizadas para regeneração das pastagens e ampliação de espaços destinados à agropecuária, fato constatado nesses locais de estudo.…”
